Step 1: Tool Time

Step 2: Picture Time

Next, Select picture you like, and resize it. Then print picture and laminate it using your clear tape.

Step 3: Resin Time

Now, mix your resin and catalyst. (read complete instructions on resin label)For this project I used 1 oz of resin, mixed with 15 drops of catalyst. I marked out the 1 oz on my mixing bowl to make it easy. Stir well for approx. 60 seconds.

The bubbles will work themselves out for the most part once the resin is drying.

Step 4: Pouring Time

Place your picture into the belt buckle, trim as needed. Then pour resin on top of picture being careful not to overflow it.

An alternative to taping the picture is to coat the image with one or two layers of Mod Podge (It's a glue, seal and finish). Cover the image on the front and the back, let it dry, and put on another coat to be safe. Mod Podge is fairly inexpensive. It seals the ink in and the resin out more effectively than the tape does.
